I uploaded a Crypt of the Necrodancer mod for this, but it says the game needs approval? I don't know if this is the right place to put this, but could somebody help with this problem? I'm not sure if it's a glitch or just something with the website.

It is definitely misleadingly put here... I won and was given Fallout 76 (of all things). Only when I asked what about my game of choice I was told its "either a game of choice OR something picked for me" without them specifying who gets which... Strange.
